Matthen is of Hebrew origin, meaning "gift from God." It is a unique and distinctive name that combines elements of traditional Hebrew names with a modern twist. The name Matthen is often associated with warmth, approachability, and individuality due to its uncommon usage. In the Bible, Matthew was one of Jesus' twelve apostles and the author of the first Gospel. However, Matthen is not directly linked to this biblical figure but rather shares its root origin.
"The name Matthen appears to have seen a slight increase in popularity between 1976 and 1982, with seven births recorded in the former year and six in the latter. However, it seems to have experienced a decline thereafter, with five or fewer births per year from 1985 onwards. Over this period of thirteen years, there were a total of thirty-five babies named Matthen."
